Back in my day we had Netflix and nothing else, and it was good. Nowadays I can’t even watch Looney Tunes on fucking Max because they were delisted. Please someone explain to these execs why they are losing money. They’re dying.
To be fair I can’t find a decent collection Looney Tunes on the high seas either.
It’s out there. I managed to collect nearly everything from I think '35 onwards.

I had not realised this before, that there are multiple versions of the same community on different instances. For example there are multiple meme communities on different instances.
I wonder how this affects engagement considering that although there might be one large community there are several smaller ones. Perhaps not everyone assumes that there’s a larger community on a different instance.
Also how does this affect niche communities where it may be that due to high fragmentation these communities might seem unusually small.
Further, if these niche communities remain unusually smaller than there Reddit counter parts would users leave do to perhaps lack of content versus their Reddit counter parts.
This is kind of a chicken and egg - users migrate or engage the more activity there is and it may lead to discouragement if their first impression is that there isn’t content.
I don’t know I’m probably rambling and don’t know what I’m talking about.
The same is true in reddit. You have multiple communities effectively about the same thing. Eventually one settles into the “primary” one
If I’m not mistaken, lemmyverse.net did not always report properly from lemmy.world and there is a community with slightly more subscribers (https://lemmy.world/c/technology with 49.8k subs today)
Ah, I thought that might be the case. I did check that lemmy.world communities are listed to ensure it’s not hiding them when I checked and I saw some.
I used to be part of the memes community but it sucked so much ass that I just returned to reddit
there’s a lot of Linux memes… don’t get me wrong I’ve had a chuckle at a couple Linux memes before but tbh most of the time it’s just a reference to Linux and they forget to include a joke.
Those people are weird. I’m saying this as someone that has a Steam Deck and runs Proxmox and Opensense and 13 VMs and containers on my network, so you know I understand the value: Linux should never be prescribed to Normies. This is not the year of the Linux desktop. It might be your year of the Linux desktop, and that’s great! But to blanket prescribe it to everyone with a slight problem in Mac or Windows with the phrase “Just Use Linux!:tm:” like all of their problems will go away if you just move to a new OS is the most asinine, fanboy shit I’ve ever heard of. And it doesn’t have anything to do with “skill issues” or whatever, it’s that normal people don’t fucking care, just want shit to work
But I get it, we’re in the fediverse, where people have a higher proclivity for open source, open protocol, open hosting, open bars, etc. But if you’re reading this and getting upset, please understand there’s a whole lot of other shit to care about, and someone’s choice of OS has as much to do with you as their sexual preferences: none at all.
Great! Sail bravely, for we’re heading into the exciting waters of the future!
Rarr!
It might not seem much, but God Bless You (with the caps) for posting these. You couldn’t be more on point.
is it? on my end, I can see that [email protected] has 50k subs, but it doesn’t come up if I search for it. weird
Yo ho ho 🏴☠️
Liberation of closed source/trade marked goods is only a good thing.
